These Lego Guys have been busy talking, not reading. Much like us. CC-licensed image from flickr user Dan A. Nachtnebel.

Karyn:
So, I’ve been hearing from a lot of folks about how this is a GREAT year, and with so many excellent books, how will the committees ever narrow it down.

I’m… not sure I agree.

I mean, there are lots of really good books out this year, but not a lot that I’m feeling I could really defend as genuine, go-the-distance contendas. Currently, my did-not-finish list is almost as long as my finished list, which is never good. Of course, I’ve only barely scratched the surface of 2012 books at this point, so maybe I’ve just been reading the wrong stuff? Let us know what you’ve already read that rocks, please, so we can find some more titles to champion.
